Watch: French Police Break Car Windows, Beat Protesters as Freedom Convoy Bursts into Paris
Breitbart ^ | 12 Feb 2022 | KURT ZINDULKA

French police have squared off with thousands of protesters attempting to establish a Canadian-style convoy in Paris in response to the draconian coronavirus measures that Emmanuel Macron’s government has imposed upon the country.

A little over a month after President Macron infamously announced that he wanted to “piss off” the unvaccinated people in France by introducing full-on vaccine passports in the country, over 3,000 vehicles have attempted to enter Paris to demand an end to the Covid regime.

It is not clear at the time of writing how many vehicles of them actually made it into the city, as police were sending many cars away throughout the day.

Ahead of the demonstration, Mr Macron called on Friday for “calm”, saying: “We are all collectively tired of what we have been experiencing for two years and sometimes this fatigue also translates into anger. I hear and respect her. But I call for the greatest calm.”

At the time of this reporting, five people have been arrested for carrying slingshots and police have used tear gas and used tractors and tow trucks to remove vehicles from the Champs-Elysées area.

Coincidences? I don’t think so.

We saw it with BLM and Antifa in 2019 but no one paid attention.

I’m not so sure it is “regimes”, plural, seems more like one global regime. Or at least across so called “western” Countries..

Hey gagline, here’s a tagline

There are good police out there. But at the end of the day, they work for the ones who pay them.

Yellow bellied cops, won’t go into the crime ridden “No go zones” but they’ll beat the regular citizens protesting for their rights.

I’ll take your word for it, but this sounds like the Vichy are alive and well in Paris.

"If the police side with the protesters, then this is over."

100% right. Best assessment of the day.

You got your wish, dipstick.

"The police will side with those who pay their wage and pensions. Same with the military."

Infantile assessment of the day.

To ignore Americans like Chris Kyle, David Clarke, Joe Arpaio, and recently (north of the border) Corporal Daniel Bulford RCMP... makes you look like just another lazy, ignorant child. Snark doesn't age well.

The bizarre punishments, distrust and flat out paranoia (and the steps that made them take) the French government had for their own military pre war made early Hitler look like a piker. Their distrust of everything and everyone, but especially their military, is a big reason they lost the Battle Of France.

Careful comrade Macron, careful of ‘les sans-culottes’! You may not like ‘la sixième république’! They might bring back ‘le rasoir national’ and give you the closest shave you’ve ever had, and the last you’ll ever have!

The “forces of order” that are normally venerated by conservatives are quickly becoming our worst nightmare.

Taxpayers are the one who pay for the cops. The cops have aligned with the fascist who despise the taxpayers.
